英文原版對(duì)話1000個(gè):627 The Commute
Tom: Hey Martin, where do you live?
Martin: I live near the train station.
Tom: Really?
Martin: Yeah.
Tom: I live near the train station.
Martin: Oh wow!
Tom: How do you come here?
Martin: I usually take the red bus. Well, I always take the red bus.
Tom: Ok, I take the blue bus.
Martin: Really, so how's that work?
Tom: It's a different route. I think it comes straight up through the town.
Martin: Oh, ok.
Tom: And then approaches from the east side. It's a small old bus and the cost is in the middle of the range but I get a little card that gives me three months travel.
Martin: Oh, ok.
Tom: It's quite crowded at the beginning when there is a lot of high school kids getting on, but they get off after a couple of stops and after then the bus is nearly empty.
Martin: Wow, really?
Tom: What's it like on the red bus?
Martin: Almost the opposite. Probably I imagine the cost is the same but this busses are much bigger and I don't know if they are newer but they seem a little more comfortable, almost like a tour bus and they end up being very, very crowded which is very different than it sounds on your bus by the time they get up here. Usually when I get on the bus, I'm standing all the way up the mountain so it's really not very comfortable to ride on those even though they have the tour bus comfy seats but it's a pretty quick route --about 15 minutes up here.
Tom: Oh, that is fast. That sounds like it's faster than the blue bus but I heard the drivers are pretty fast.
Martin: Sometimes the drivers can be very nice and courteous and sometimes the drivers act like your not really there.
Tom: It's quite a steep route as well, isn't it?
Martin: Yes, it's very steep and there's a few stops up the middle of the hill and I don't know why they are there and the drivers sometimes take the turns quite quickly and especially when you are standing, it's not so comfortable.
